Fund claims trespass at apartment earmarked for social housing
Summary
The Davy Platform ICAV, a fund that acquires social housing for public bodies, brought a High Court action against Mr Gerard O'Sullivan, alleging that he unlawfully re‑entered and is trespassing on an apartment at Rosebank Place, Clondalkin, which the fund purchased for €173,000 in October 2018. O'Sullivan denies wrongdoing, claiming ownership of the property and that the fund's purchase was illegal. He also claims that Ms Fiona O'Brien, believed to be his niece, is residing there under a lease granted by him. The fund seeks an injunction compelling the defendants to vacate the property and cease trespassing. The case was heard by Mr Justice Senan Allen, who adjourned the matter for a week to allow O'Sullivan to formally reply to the fund's claims. The injunction application is urgent, and the court noted that Ms O'Brien must attend the hearing or obtain legal representation to be heard.
